Answer:

Acid-test (quick) ratio=0.76642

Explanation:

Given Data:

Current Assets=$193,000

Current Liabilities=$137,000

Cash=$62,000

Accounts receivable=$43,000

Inventory=$88,000

Required:

Acid-test (quick) ratio=?

Solution:

Quick Assets=Cash+Accounts receivable

Quick Assets=$62,000+$43,000

Quick Assets=$105,000

Acid-test (quick) ratio=Quick Assets/Current Liabilities

Acid-test (quick) ratio=$105,000/$137,000

Acid-test (quick) ratio=0.76642

Assume that a firm uses labor and capital to produce a product. The firm hires labor at a wage rate of $4 per unit and rents cap
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: c.) hire less labor and rent more capital

Explanation:

To answer this we would need to find out the Marginal cost per dollar of producing with either form of production being labour or capital.

The Marginal Product of Labour is 20 units resulting from $4 dollars so that means that for every dollar spent on Labour we get,

= 20/4

= 5 units of output.

However, The Marginal Product of renting Capital is 30 units resulting from $5 dollars so that means that for every dollar spent on Capital we get,

= 30/5

= 6 units of output.

This means that renting Capital is more efficient because we get 1 more unit of output per dollar and so to minimize cost of production without changing the level of output, the firm should hire less labor and rent more capital.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

D) only revenue is recorded each time a sale is made.

Explanation:

When a company uses a periodic inventory system, the cost of goods sold is calculated only after the physical inventory count is completed. This physical count is done periodically and may happen once every few months or even once a year.

The periodic system is obsolete nowadays and cheaper technological solutions make it easier for companies to use a perpetual inventory system which is much better in every possible way.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer: Sell four December coffee future contracts at $2.00 per pound

Explanation:

Based on the scenario in the question, the number of contracts that is required for hedging the entire crop will be gotten by dividing the total number of crops by the pounds that are available in one contract. This will be:

= 150,000/37,500

= 4 contracts

Therefore, the answer will be for Jarvis to sell four December coffee future contracts at $2.00 per pound

Winners of the Georgia Lotto drawing are given the choice of receiving the winning amount divided equally over 2222 years or as
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

0 i.e. zero

Explanation:

The formula we will us to calculate the cash option payout​ for formula for calculating the present value (PV) .

Present value (PV) can simply be described as the current value of a future amount or future stream of cash flows given a certain return rate.

To calculate the PV of a future cash flow, we will discount it by using the discount rate.

The formula is provided as follows:

PV = FV/(1 + r)^n ............................................ (1)

Where,

PV = Present Value = ?

r = discount rate = 66% = 0.66

FV = annual future value = $863,636.36

n = number of years = 2222 years

Note that the annual future value calculated by diving the $1919 million by 2222 years and this give us $863,636.36 (i.e.  1,919,000,000 ÷ 2222 = $863,636.36).

Substituting the figures above into equation (1), we obtain:

PV = 863,636.36/(1 + 0.66)^2222

     = 863,636.36/(1.66)^2222

     = 863,636.36/∞

PV = 0

This is because, the division of any number by infinity is equal to zero. And if we multiply by zero by 2222, it will still give us zero PV.

Therefore, the cash option payout​ will be zero. It is better the winner take the option of collecting $863,636.36.
